I have tried to create an archive of my own to reproduce the problem. I think I have succeeded.
Check the included archive, which contains: - 10 folders containing 10 (empty) text files - a zip archive containing a single file filled with some data gleaned from /dev/random observation: - trying to inspect the contents with file-roller causes file-roller to crash - extracting the file extracts only the contents of the zip archive (compare: extraction from the CLI with rar e) more observations: - I had to compress from the command line (with the rar utility) as nautilus consistently crashes if I try to compress through the context menu ("compress") - the issue appears to match this report on reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/gnome/comments/1btxk69/nautilus_crashing_when_selecting_multiple_files/ ** Attachment added: "archive.rar" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/2063397/+attachment/5770668/+files/archive.rar -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2063397 Title: extracting rar archives sometime incomplete To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/2063397/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
